Comment (by nickm):

 There's an additional piece of trouble here: When a client kills the last
 circuit on a connection that has been idle for a while, the relay will
 still probably want to close the connection immediately, since the relay
 hasn't sent anything for quite a long time.  Maybe that's another ticket?
